Watch: West Virginia Beats Texas on Gutsy Two-Point Conversion

Plenty of drama unfolded in No. 13 West Virginia's 42–41 win over No. 15 Texas on Saturday.

Heisman Trophy candidate Will Grier's 33-yard touchdown strike to Gary Jennings Jr. set up the Mountaineers with a chance to even the score at 41 apiece with 16 seconds remaining.

But West Virginia head coach Dana Holgersen had other plans.

Holgersen rolled the dice, sending his team out for a go-ahead two-point try. After a Texas timeout, the Mountaineers dialed up a perfect call and Grier connected with David Sills V. But before the celebration could ensue, the referees called the play back—the Longhorns had called timeout before the snap.
